Originally capured in RAW with D700 and sigma 180mm macro, very little PP.
Converted in NX2, I had to ajust WB because of strange cloudy weather.

Thanks for looking

Now I see why I attrackt that many flies. They do have a beard, just like me, and come to admire mine!

Very impressing. How fast have you been while taking this picture, or was it a studiomodel ?
The sharpnes is right good and the colours in the picture seems very right to me.
Althoug I do not like insects they are very special and amazing as I can see now .
Nice picture. Christine

Thanks Christine. Many insects are quite easy to approach on certain moments of the day. Using a 180mm macro lens helps to keep some distance.

This is a great image Stany - were you using your Macro flash or is this all ambient light (sorry if you've already told us!)

Hi James,
ambient light, on tripod and MF.

Cool - I didn't think it looked flash lit, but I was curious as to how the christmas present is working out for you! It is a great image though.

Impressing detail.

Great image! Now I feel sorry for having killed so many of them
